Pool running 45:00 [2] 0.7 km (1:04:17 / km)
In sounding-worse-but-not-feeling-as-bad mode; won't be at 100% for tomorrow but shouldn't be catastrophically bad (it's perhaps fortunate that I'm acting my age tomorrow and won't be doing a proper long race until next week). A fairly relaxed session at Ivanhoe.
The No Carbon Tax demo at the Bureau ended up being a spectacular flop - depending on who you spoke to, the attendance was either three or four (plus four police). I think this officially surpasses the 1991 anti-Gulf War protest at ANU (nine speakers, eight in the audience) as the biggest protest fizzer in my recollection, and in the 1991 case the wind was rather taken out of the sails of the protest by the fact that the war which they were protesting against had ended several hours before the protest started.
